Itโs a new day
A day to celebrate a birthday
A day to succeed
A day to change the speed
A day to erase painful memories
Memories Iโve held for centuries
Memories that in summary, have become my enemies
Itโs a new day in May
A day to celebrate motherโs days
A day to be compassionate
A day to explore passions and take action
A day to proceed with caution but still make it happen
Yesterday my day was collapsing
There I was graspingโฆ
Grasping for airโฆ
Snappingโฆ
Snapping because I couldnโt control the emotion
Almost completely broken
But itโs a new day
And today I donโt have to listen to what my emotions have to say
Iโve been looking for waysโฆ
Ways to have better days
And today is that day
Today is the day my emotions obey
